My lessons are engaging, structured, and tailored to each learner’s goals, level, and learning pace. Every session begins with clearly stated objectives so students understand what they will learn and how it connects to their academic or test-preparation needs. Lessons are interactive and student-centered, combining guided instruction with discussion, practice tasks, and real-world examples.
I teach English Language, Language Arts, reading comprehension, grammar, vocabulary development, and academic writing. I also prepare students for standardized tests such as the SAT, focusing on critical reading, evidence-based writing, and effective test strategies. For ESL learners, I emphasize fluency, accuracy, confidence, and practical communication skills while strengthening grammar and vocabulary.
My teaching approach blends explanation, modeling, and active practice. I use authentic texts, exam-style questions, short exercises, and targeted drills to reinforce understanding. Students are encouraged to ask questions, think critically, and apply concepts during the lesson. Regular feedback is provided to highlight strengths and address areas for improvement.
With over a decade of experience teaching and tutoring secondary and tertiary students, including international learners from the United States and Canada, I understand diverse learning needs and academic expectations. I adapt my methods to suit different learning styles and proficiency levels, ensuring steady and measurable progress.
Overall, my lessons are supportive yet challenging, designed to build strong language skills, academic confidence, and independent learning habits that extend beyond the classroom.
